Doesn't seem to be much about these in any threads I can find. I'd post this in auto-electrical but I want to know more about practicality and suitability not how to wire them up.
I'm after a LED work light for fishing and camping. I've welded a cut down tent pole to my spare wheel carrier so I can adjust a light up and down. I'm after fairly diffuse light that won't draw too much current (~1.25A max) out of my tiny ~60Ah aux battery but will light up a decent work area.
my bro is running the same one as above as a reverse light. Awesome amount of light. Possibly too much of a concentrated/direct light for what your after?
found the hella on ebay for $240 and the autolamp for $180 got to have a think about it now.
Jop, I checked out pond lights at bunnings but they are all butt ugly and too big for how much spread I would get on the light. The only one I found that was any good took a G6.35 globe. I can't find any LED replacements for these but I might see if I can mod the lamp to take one of those MR16 bases. Rather than using a transformer I've got a 12V reg that I would use. Thanks for the info.

I found a stainless pond light a few years ago removed the dodgy leds and fitted the above led, using a bit of good silicon to 'glue' it to the front glass of the pond light.
Fitted the mr-16 plug to the internal wiring - sweet
